As a Sr. Scientist in the Analytical Development group, a typical day might include the following:
- Collaborate with partner groups in research to bring in-house, develop, and optimize analytical methods to evaluate novel CGT candidates using analytical methods such as digital PCR, ELISA, electrophoresis, HPLC, and cell-based methods for eventual transfer to GMP testing groups.
- Stay at the leading edge of industry trends and agency requirements in the CGT analytical space as it pertains to development and transfer in the GMP environment.
- Proactively engage and lead troubleshooting activities for established methods by providing scientific support across the program life cycle.
- Independently create scientifically sound project development plans and relevant experiments using high-level project timelines and goals.
- Interpret data and analyze results to design follow-up experiments needed to complete assay development. Present results to management and at cross-group meetings.
- Write and review assay development and qualification protocols and reports, SOPS, technical documents, investigation summaries, and IND/BLA submission sections.
- Use statistical tools to develop quantitative measures in decision making around assay development and performance.
- Use scientific literature to develop scientific arguments for white paper justifications, investigation conclusions, new technology, and process improvements.
- Produce and maintain accurate records.
- Represent group as SME on internal and external project teams. Serve as scientific lead for analytical methods at partner CRO/CDMOs.
- Train junior level group members and act as a mentor within the laboratory.
